J.B. to Colomb – on Paper Money and Codification

Dear Sir

Your Messenger has just been here. Not
being at that the moment in a condition to go down to him
no I sent down one of my young men, saw him instead of me and he
received the message. You had received (it was said), from the Finance
Minister the instruction you were in expectation of; and
would take me a name being at this for some time particularly
engaged, would as soon as your engagements permitted
name an early day for calling on me. The sooner and
the oftener you do so the more I shall shall feel myself
gratified and honoured, as well as gratified. With so far
being The particular business of the paper money however will not have
now make any amendment draughts upon you of give any necessary acceleration to any such visit.

It was as long ago as the 17 of October that the Minister
wrote to M. Mora at Madrid that letter of which the last-mentioned
Gentleman sent me a copy. not the I would have been
and not before that I received it. Hence it about the same day in Novr that the other was written which has been received by you from that same Office
that Here I infer that in the Ministers view of the matter there were is nothing of
in it that pressed urgency in it. On this ground my hope is – that, if before
I have the honour of seeing you on this subject the quantity of time
elapses equal to that which must intervene between a intervene the sending sending of
from a letter from him you to Madrid and the receipt of an answer to bot it
the inconvenience will not be considerable: En , Should I ever begin
with the business, take the business in hand, it will shall not be for want of time and labour
on my part that it so far as depends upon me it will if it fails of receiving such dispatch as
in one way or the other be dispatched transmitted
may be desired.
